1986 Map of Survey Pass A-4

About this map

The Reed River valley serves as the central drainage for this remote arctic landscape, captured in a 1986 USGS survey that reflects the land management shifts of the era. The area is defined by the high-alpine transitions within the Gates of the Arctic National Park, including designated Gates of the Arctic Wilderness and the Gates of the Arctic National Preserve. These boundaries were established following the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act of 1980, making this map a primary document for the newly formalized federal protection of the Brooks Range. Notable water bodies such as Walker Lake in the northeast and Nutuvukti Lake in the south anchor the drainages of Inyuktuk Creek and Kaluluktok Creek, illustrating a wilderness landscape where natural watercourses and topography are the only landmarks, entirely devoid of roads or permanent settlements.
